jacskson๏ผ‡s wonderful world.

Bapuan Temple, the National Temple built in 1050-1066, the fifth floor gradually narrowed up the pyramid building, and the most attractive is the 172-meter straight approach, when I climbed to the highest point of the temple, looking down A solemn and solemn feeling came to life, as if you were on the top of the world and overlooked all beings. Due to the age and collapse of the Bafang Temple, during the French colonial period, the maintenance team began to find ways to restore his original appearance. The maintenance team removed the pieces of stone and numbered them. Each stone was marked with the number on the printed document, and then the stones were placed on the nearby ground for finishing. Unexpectedly, in 1975, the Khmer Rouge took power and all the repair work stopped instantly. In the short three years of the Khmer Rouge, these original restoration documents disappeared. The original staff members were arrested and slaughtered because many of them were intellectuals. So in the end, the Bafang Temple became a pile of stones that the group did not return.
